    I had to get a gaming laptop just because how much I travel and move around. I had a really good Alienware laptop that I played WoW on for years. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is very heavy. Lugging that thing around all over the world is a huge chore. My next laptop will be much lighter.

    As many others have also said, If possible don't get a gaming laptop, a desktop would be better.. BUT if you have to get a laptop, the Lenovo's and MSI ones are probably some of the best. Also as someone else said, you only really need an i5 for games, unless you're processing videos and stuff. Unless there is a sale going on, Amazon tends to have pretty good deals on the MSI laptops.

    Well, in the case of the laptop I posted, it pretty much is a desktop. It had a desktop processor, two desktop 980s, 32gb of RAM, and 2TB of RAID0 SSD

    Is this any good? Keep in mind, I'm just looking to run things like LFD2, Payday 2, Fallout Series, Half Life, and game design software.

    Yessir. That's how I started playing. When I joined the Air Force, it was the most efficient way for me to play.
